Stress Managing Projects with Confidence and Less w/ Elizabeth Harrin

Ever feel like project management is more about people than projects? You’re not wrong—and this episode proves it. We sit down with Elizabeth Harrin, founder of Rebel’s Guide to Project Management, to explore the truth behind the PM grind, from dealing with burnout to navigating tough stakeholders and owning your career path.

Elizabeth shares personal stories from her journey—including moving countries, working part-time after becoming a mom, and managing high-stakes projects in healthcare. If you’ve ever questioned your confidence as a PM or felt invisible at work, this episode will give you the mindset shifts and tools to push forward. It’s honest, unfiltered, and packed with value for PMs at any stage.

🎯 What You'll Learn in This Series:

How to overcome imposter syndrome in technical or unfamiliar projects
The underrated skills that separate high-performing PMs from the rest
Why you need to take full ownership of your career trajectory
How to troubleshoot stuck projects using frameworks like the 5 Whys
What “Sticky 3” is—and why it’s Elizabeth’s go-to productivity hack
…and so much more!
